    Thanks Wee Neil,
    Its on just before 12pm. I won't tell you what was said, but if it wasn't a health issue it would be funny.

    Pressed a couple of buttons on my laptop to let the DVLA know I'm changing my reg plate from one bike to another. A very simple process which cost me 80 fkn quid !!!....... thieves :mad:

    Wait til I tell Carole Nash about it............ might as well just bend over and take what's coming now :(

    Was doing the paperwork at the dealers for the new Tiger when I spotted a charge of £28 ??

    "This is the fitting charge for your top box" she says. (10% of the cost of the £280 box)

    "So if I lift it out it's cardboard box and click it into position myself i'd save the 28 quid" I asks... (as the rack is already there)

    "yes" she says............ FFS you couldny script it !!! :eek::mad:

    Are Triumph learning from B*W :D

    To be fair she did say it was a silly thing to charge for. I'll bet she'd have done feck all about it though if I hadn't noticed.

    Never booked a test ride Dougie, it was only a courtesy bike they gave me. I wasn't panning on getting rid of my bike until at least Nov this year (when my loan finishes) but I had such a great time on that Tiger I had to have one. It's like my V-Strom but 50% more aggresive everywhere..... loved it.

    So yes I'm part ex'ing the Street Twin, new bike should be here by early next month, can't wait :D

    Looks like you are going to be learning the bike dismantling yourself ! As it sounds like the only safe option ... With everyone else having five thumbs ! K&N definitely the way to go ! I have had them on all my bike's for the last 20 yes. The difference they make is awesome, and being able to service it @ anytime is a big bonus, no waiting for crushed or ruined ones to be delivered or out of stock. Pity they couldn't invent brake pads or chain and Sprocket's the same ! !

    Who the F**k thought of that F***ing ridiculous idea of opening a tin of corned beef with that twat of a slotted key.
    How I didn't finish up in A&E I will never know.
    Key was missing, no problem I'll use my pliers, no chance, shitty bit of tin tears off
    Can opener then, recess too deep won't reach with the cutting wheel.
    Back to the pliers with the touch of a midwife but bits of tin keep tearing off.
    Screwdriver and getting annoyed now and making a right mess.
    Eventually half tore off the razor sharp lid with the pliers.
    Made a shite corned beef sandwich which I couldnt enjoy, looking out for bits of razor sharp tin.

    Windows 10. I was expecting to come on here and rant about how bloody awful it was, but I can't. I missed the previous version on Windows 8, that everybody hated, thank God, cos this one works good. My father in law bought a W8 laptop, it was terrible, but thank feck this one works.

    So, this is an anti-rant.!!!! :D
